Coco & Chanel - Shitzu x Chi sisters of 12 months approx being fostered in Gloucestershire.These two lovely girls came into our care due to serious health issues within their family, they had previously been living with another little dog and six children.

They are now in foster in family home with 2 teenagers, 2 dogs and 2 cats.

When they first arrived they were very unsure, the other dogs living in our home are large lab type mixes and the girls felt very nervous around them and new dogs, also very unsure around the cats. They found it hard to settle, their house training was all over the place and appeared very anxious. As the days went on and they got into a routine we started to see the real little lasses as they blossomed and gain confidence. We had a few visitors and they really started to enjoy other dogs company. Video belowhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRtFWWCImsE

They are now fully relaxed and sleep through the night with no problems. Coco the smaller one with brown patches is the quieter one of the two she is a real little love bug and just wants to really sit on your lap and be loved, she is fine with the other dogs and cats and loves everyone she meets if you sit down longer enough she is on your lap. Chanel the white one is a completely different personality still loving and a cuddle bug like her sister but she is a real tom boy, she loves playing with the other dogs now she has the confidence not really bothered how big they are.

With her foster brotherhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4RUZ6JysW8Both girls are good off the lead and will travel fine in the car - their house training is coming on and we are nearly there - they sleep at night on our bed I am afraid snuggled up together - they wash each others ears and will play together round the house.

I love these girls very much, they are so sweet, Chanel is so funny but underneath it they are still a bit unsure, they are both very different personalities so have different needs but to split them up when they are so bonded I think would be a crime so we are looking for a home for them together if we can, a home where Coco can get her cuddles and Chanel can get to be wild and run around like a big girl as she loves flying around over the fields - no children under 10 as they are so small and I think have probably had more than their fair share of being picked up and carried around.

They are both spayed, fully vaccinated, chipped etc - if you think you could be the right home for our lovely girls please email us at starfishdogrescue@hotmail.co.uk for our questionnaire in the first instance
